But at the thought of Song Qingshu's abilities, the radiant girl's mood immediately brightened. "Back then, he could turn the Jin Dynasty upside down with a wave of his hand. How could such a minor crisis possibly stump him?" Her spirits instantly lifted again.
Ever since Song Qingshu's mishap, all his friends and family had been on edge. Most people were pessimistic about whether he could escape danger, yet this "friend," who was not all that close to him, had guessed closer to the truth.
The radiant girl was drawn in by Lin'an City's prosperity. She skipped from one roadside stall to another, looking around with delight. Before long, everyone nearby noticed the girl who looked like a little fairy. Women gazed at her enviously, while men stared without blinking.
The radiant girl frowned slightly. She might have been playful, but once she became the center of everyone's attention, she lost all interest in shopping. With a pout and a huff, she turned and left.
Because she used her lightness skill, the people nearby merely saw a blur before she vanished from sight. The men in the crowd all sighed in unison.
"Hmph, all the rotten men in the world are the same. Disgusting." Because of what had happened to her mother years ago, the radiant girl had no favorable impression of men. "Forget it. I'll go wait for Western Venom at Lou Wai Lou first."
If someone had observed from above, they would have seen the girl fluttering through the crowds like a butterfly dancing among flowers. Lin'an City was one of the most prosperous cities in the realm. Saying its streets were packed shoulder to shoulder might not have been an exaggeration. Yet as the girl wove through the crowd, not a single person managed to touch her.
